Internet Firewall

DU's Internet firewall allows outgoing connections from the DU network to the Internet. However, the firewall will, by design, prevent incoming connections to the computers, servers and services on the DU network. The only way to enter the network from the outside is by configuring the firewall to allow specific connections.

You must be either an appointed faculty or staff member at DU to request a firewall breach. Students or student organizations must work with their appropriate advisors to make requests. To request a firewall breach to allow Internet access to a resource on the DU network from the Internet, please submit the following form:
